Version 2.4

The sMArt window is a dynamic pool that gives quick access to fixture-defined channel sets. The channel sets are a part of the fixture types. Depending on the fixture selection and the selected attribute in the encoder bar, the pool objects in the sMArt window will change. Each pool object represents a channel set defined in the fixture profile. See also, Build Fixture Types, Create Presets from Fixture Types, and Store Presets to Fixture Types.
